Parking garage collapsed with my car on it!

Red Bread · 07-31-2018, 05:48 PM

Rental Camry and new car seat in action. What a weird day!

Vitacura · 07-31-2018, 06:13 PM

Wow, so glad that no one was injured!

More fell that they got on video from a helicopter. One of my colleague's cars got it, after we'd joked about that section being next.

That's crazy. Time to get some $.

"In Texas, there are no laws or regulations that require routine structural inspections of public or private parking garages. Inspections are required during the construction phase. But after construction is complete, it's up to the garage owner to hire a structural engineer to routinely conduct an inspection and identify and maintenance issues caused by wear and tear."

Holy smokes.. Imagine if someone was just walking by and the ceiling just collapse onto them. What a sad way to go...

MJBO · 08-01-2018, 02:52 AM

Astonishing no one was hurt!

I'm pretty sure I'd wait until they removed some of the weight off the top before even thinking about going in there !!

Pay someone 50 buck to do it, preferably someone you dont like
